Synopsis
Generally regarded as "America's Painter," realist Andrew Wyeth is perhaps the most well know of the artistic Wyeth family dynasty which includes his father N. C. Wyeth, sister Henriette Hurd, and son Jamie Wyeth. Although most recent explorations of this artist have focused on his family and on the Helga pictures, this unique publication chronicles seven decades of an under-appreciated yet historically relevant aspect of his relationship to home and community. Andrew Wyeth: Close Friends is the first critical look at a significant body of paintings and works on paper depicting Wyeth's African-American friends and neighbours in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, a quaint village on the Brandywine River where he has lived since birth.Beginning in the 1930s, many of Wyeth's African-American neighbours served as his models both in and out of the studio. Images of over 20 individuals are included, as well as depictions of their homes, farms, and meeting places. Wyeth's own words annotate the reproductions of his paintings and drawings and offer a rare glimpse into the mind of this truly individual artist. In her brief introduction, the artist's wife and collaborator, Betsy James Wyeth, recounts her arrival in Chadds Ford as a young bride and her immediate connection to the community she found there.Andrew Wyeth: Close Friends includes over 100 colour reproductions of major tempera and watercolour paintings and numerous black and white images of graphite drawings. Works reproduced are drawn from public and private collections, with a large number from the personal collection of the Wyeths. In addition to a foreword by museum director R. Andrew Maass, the book includes family photographs and facsimiles of personal correspondence.Betsy James Wyeth came to Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania in 1940 as the new bride of painter Andrew Wyeth. She has collaborated with her husband on several exhibitions and publications. The Wyeth's divide their time between Chadds Ford and Midcoast, Maine., * Paintings and drawings of Wyeth's African-American friends and neighbours, produced over seven decades* Includes over 100 colour reproductions of major tempera and watercolour paintings and numerous black and white images of graphite drawings

- e***a (272)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSeller dispatched in approx 24hr. Book as described & all arrived fine as it was perfectly packaged for an international trip from the US to me in the UK. Padded envelope with thick cardboard spacer to keep the paperback straight and the book was snuggly wrapped in a plastic sheet to keep corners tight & unbumped. ABSOLUTELY PERFECT and I wish all sellers shipped books like this. It makes me so happy when sellers pay attention to details - nothing excessive, just perfect. Book even smelt nice :)
- 7***3 (86)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA very trustworthy and communicative seller! The price of the books he sold me was so incredible, that I couldn't believe it until I received them. Books arrived in amazing condition (better than the photos conveyed) and the price and speed of shipping was the best I think I've had on eBay -- books arrived over 20 days before they were supposed to! Will buy from this seller again if I see an item I would like.6 VOLUME SET OF DAVE SIM & GERHARD BOOKS 6, 7, 8, 13 14, 15 GRAPHIC NOVELS (#235896476642)
